| As i wrote above too late to be noticed Cross dressing In no longer funny. Bigotry and bathroom bills from the right make gender identification a serious often deadly issue. Drag story hours in libraries are n the cross hairs. | |

| Aren’t drag queens all about humor with their names and performances? It’s absolutely still funny if done well. | |

| Thank you. But both can be cunny, or not funny, depending on the context. Almost anything can be funny if it's in a comic context. Sweeney Todd (particularly "A Little Priest") makes cannibalism funny - not something that's true most of the time. :-) |

| Yes, but I do think this production makes something good out of the premise. | |

| Right. Cross dressing itself isn’t inherently funny, and thank God, because the king of humor is based on the idea that men shouldn’t wear dresses. But people in disguise attempting to not get caught is a solid comic premise, and it works marvelously here. | |

| I agree. And that's why it's better that Christian Borle doesn't "pass." | |
